I think you are right about Steem. Only a few will see it. That is true of nearly all paradigm changes that take place. Who would have seen the horses being replaced by internal combustion engines back then?
Very few.
In my youth. A telephone, (landline) was a luxury that few had at the beginning. A long walk to a neighbor's house was necessary.
Would I have thought that I could see what I see today?
Not a chance.
We will not visualize all the changes that are coming and will take place.
But, I think that you are right. Steem and some other crypto currencies will be a part of that brave new world.
Thank you

Thank you for the comment @francisk. I think this is compounded by the fact that many of the changes are under the surface or behind the scenes. People can see a house being built, yet they do not see changes in construction methods.
That is what is taking place here. We are all aware the real story is blockchain, not crypto...yet that is what people see. The power is underneath the surface that is why people cannot treat it as a currency.
It is great to get a time line from someone who saw so many changes. Even in my lifetime, I remember a time without computers, cable television, and when I was the remote control for the television set for my dad.
People do not realize the pace of change...and it is wonderful.
Yeah, I also remember being my dad's remote control xD
